New Woodlands Restaurant Shines in This Week’s Episode

Bring an appetite for this weekend’s episode of Goodtaste with Tanji! Set those DVR’s for Sunday morning at 5:30a on KPRC. I’ll take you to one of my favorite Woodland’s eateries and to a cool new spot in the trendy Pearl in San Antonio…but that’s just the beginning….more details below.

FIELDING’S LOCAL

At Fielding’s Local Kitchen + Bar, fresh is everything, from the welcoming outdoor patio to the spot-on, locally sourced dishes that arrive at your table. If you’re in the mood for a sizzling steak, you’re in luck! Their product is premium, compliments of the famed 44 Farms just a couple hours up the road in Cameron, TX, hand cut and cured daily in-house. Eyeing something a bit more…exotic? Please your palate with the “Pulpo,” Spanish for “octopus!”

These massive mollusks are poached for 90 minutes and grilled alongside aromatic onions, then served on a plate painted with rich Romesco sauce. Leave it to the professionals at the restaurant, or try your own hand at this seafood sensation with the recipe right now on Goodtaste.tv!

DOWN ON GRAYSON

Down in San Antone, we’re Down on Grayson, a stylish new American diner that sits just steps from the popular Pearl Brewery. The scratch-made menu from legendary restaurateur Pat Molak (The Gristmill, Gruene Hall) and his daughter Katie is fabulous; contemporary comfort food classics combined with what’s currently trending–all fun, approachable and fresh. Lest we forget the ‘pooch-perfect’ patio that keeps locals coming back for seconds. 🙂

My friends at H-E-B Cooking Connection break down one of DoG’s most sought-after (and simple!) shareable plates, the Double Dip, with house-made guacamole and jalapeño pimento cheese served with warm tortilla chips. Look out for the recipe this weekend!
